Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Camden has completed a procurement process titled "Managed Services for Temporary Agency Resources", which falls under the services industry category of supply services of personnel, including temporary staff. This was a collaborative procurement managed through a call-off procedure by the London Collaboration Procurement using the Eastern Shires Purchasing Organisation (ESPO) Managed Services framework agreement. Matrix SCM Limited has been awarded the contract, valued at £143,000,000, which was signed on 25 November 2025. The contract pertains to the UKI31 region, and the procurement stage is now at the award stage, having leveraged a limited procurement method without prior publication due to its specific framework structure.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in supplying temporary agency staff, particularly those with the capacity to engage in large-scale collaborations. Companies adept in managing complex regional frameworks and seeking to expand their footprint in the public sector would find this opportunity lucrative. The regional focus on London boroughs could also suit businesses familiar with metropolitan service demands and those capable of delivering a neutral vendor solution within stipulated regulatory frameworks such as the Public Contract Regulations 2015.
